Investment Consultancy

Our Consultancy Team delivers to clients in-depth property market knowledge and sheds light on investment conditions in our region. This opens-up the commercial property process and gives investors clear, viable options and piece of mind that they are making the right decisions. Our consultants also understand that the analytical process needs to be carried out effectively and expediently, with our client’s deadlines and goals in mind.

Equipped with international expertise and proven methodologies, our consultants can identify real estate opportunities and flag potential issues which may arise today, and potentially in the future. Taking these into account, our consultants outline practical scenarios for our client’s assets, with the end result being informed decisions taken by the client. Forton’s Advisory Services cover all stages of project investment from the initial design phase, through to the construction phase, to project monitoring and onto the sale structuring and execution.

Feasibility Studies

A feasibility study is most effective when applied at the concept design stage of a development project. It involves thoroughly analyzing the land plot development options, supply and demand trends in specific property segments, rent levels, sale prices, tenant/buyer requirements, all with the aim of arriving at the right strategies and recommendations for the project. To broaden the scope of our analysis, our consultants always take into account macroeconomic fundamentals and track the latest developments in your market segment. We perform financial modeling based on building size, expected rent levels/sale prices, construction costs and time to realization to be able to estimate the likely return on investment for your project.

Our aim is to support developers in creating successful investment products and bringing them to the market.

Strategic Advisory

Our Consultancy Team provides effective solutions for both investors looking to develop projects (or find income generating assets), and owners planning to restructure and/or dispose of their real estate. In the first case, our advisory can help investors identify investment opportunities through targeting, risk analysis, deal structuring and integration. In the second case, the process involves property valuation, positioning the project in the current market environment, considering options for possible restructuring to maximize value, modeling of financial alternatives, and the process of selling the property.

Occupier’s Strategy

A common issue for retailers, service providers, banks and large corporate entities is optimization of the space they occupy.

Combining our leasing and advisory experience, Forton can provide a complete Occupier’s Analysis for clients operating multi-office/store networks. Our aim is to add value to the client’s core business by improving its coverage of the market and making its property costs more efficient. We assist with organizational assessment, rent and property management costs, structuring of strategic scenarios for expansion, relocation or space optimization and analysis of cost efficiency savings.
